A Message from the President

The Australian Federation of Islamic Councils (AFIC) has had 38 proud years as Australia's only Islamic peak body. The Federation is made up of nine state and territorial councils including Christmas Island and the ACT.

AFIC has co-ordinated the Muslim community across the nation, sponsored the building of schools and mosques and represented Australian Muslims in governmental and interfaith affairs.

 
   Today AFIC is responsible for halal food products certification, schools and mosque building projects, media monitoring and the Australian Muslim News publication, production of educational material on Islam and assists with welfare and community initiatives.

In 2002 AFIC celebrated its 38th annual congress and dinner in Sydney, electing its new president and welcoming all its council members.
